On the plane ride to Japan I decided to see 007 No Time to Die, since why the heck not, I needed to kill 3 hours somehow.
It may not have been the best way to watch the film, and I’m not sure if Airplane Films typically have their audio mixes different than normal, but for me, most of the dialogue was clear but the music was unfortunately lost in the plane noise. (Though I didn’t have the audio turned all the way up)
And, sound quality aside, not sure if that would have changed my impression of the film much.
I quite enjoyed it, good performances by all, cool action scenes, but, man, maybe it’s because I’m not a big Bond watcher or detail-ravenous fan, but I found the movie confusing continuity-wise. 
I’ve only seen the Daniel Craig movies and I don’t think I’ve ever seen any of them in theatres. Always at home after its run. And… I guess they always took a few years in between so, yeah, don’t remember too much about them. I did quite like Skyfall and the scrappy ending of that in the old boarding school I remember.
Anyway, No Time to Die.
Characters would appear like Jeffrey Wright’s character or Tanner, Bond would welcome them like an old friend, and I’m like, who?
I remembered Christoph Waltz’s character being the main baddie in Spectre at least! Forgot he was revealed as Bond’s lost brother? But uh yeah, that I remembered.
I was quite interested in seeing this film because Rami Malek played the big bad guy Bond had to take down. Love that actor.
But… I feel like he was really underused. Barely appeared until the last third of the film. I get there was the whole mystery with the nanobot infection plot, but I’d have liked to see his perspective a bit more throughout the film to keep his presence alive. He did a fine job but I wish he had more.
Léa Seydoux did a great job as the mysterious love interest to Bond. I need to look up the age difference though, I was kinda concerned with like, is this a weird age gap or something? Felt like it lol 
Fun film, but maybe I need to rewatch the bond films in a tighter schedule
On the plane to Australia just now I saw Five Nights at Freddy’s 2. I watched the first one once on a flight, so I figured why not the sequel? 
It was alright. The first film was also alright, pretty cliche tropes and I thought the movie didn’t take itself seriously enough at times. Also there wasn’t even a “Five Nights Security” element to it, Mike just slept on the job the whole time lol
The sequel though remedies that! Mike DOES do a Five Nights little game at one point in the film, fun to see.
The plot is more ambitious and goes further with the supernatural spooks, the main thing being The Marionnette being the new evil force to defeat.
Thank god honestly. They had Matthew Lillard in a lot of the press junket marketing for the film, and I was worried they were gonna bring him back as the main baddie, but no, he’s just in flashbacks (for now) because he’s dead (for now).
The characters in this sequel are so stupid though, my god. Constantly just… not running away from the dangerous things (like that one ghost hunter who didn’t even try to escape the water, then died in the water wow good job)
Well, the girl who plays Abby I think has improved her acting chops, I found her quite likeable and charming this time around (in the first movie I thought she was kinda naïve and annoying.) Plus near the end of this film, she gets to do creepy posession stuff which really freaked me out tbh.
Everyone else though, oof. I mean, the opening of the movie: this one girl is freaking the hell out needing help and ZERO parents are concerned for her or this missing kid she’s trying to find?
Mike is really concerned for Abby until he’s told “she went on her own to see her friends” and he dismisses it so he can be an asshole to his girlfriend confiding in him (and trying to protect Abby too).
Abby’s teacher at school is an abusive piece of shit who got what was coming to him but also just… ugh… forcibly removing a student from an extra curricular activity list then also destroying their work when they show up anyway… how is he not fired.
The animatronics are really cool and well-made robots/suits, god damn great job Jim Henson Company. But what the hell how can they sneak up on so many people in this film when they’re constantly shown to have big clomping stomping feets lmao. Makes zero sense.
There were a couple of grisly kills in this one too, like damn.
I think the editing and cinematography were pretty cool though! The dream sequence with Vanessa had a lot of cool match cuts between her/child her.
3 or 4/10 for me.
(I should have watched Zootopia 2 instead FUCK)
